{"product_id":"unrequited-legacy","title":"Unrequited (Legacy)","description":"Amazon.com\n\nAs Loudon Wainwright points out in notes to this reissue of what was his final album for Columbia, the battle plan was to make a half-studio, half-live LP, the latter being where critics and fans felt the singer-songwriter did his best work. Unfortunately, Wainwright's desire to have it both ways failed on virtually all levels. Recorded in the mid-'70s as he was splitting from both his longtime manager and his wife (and then emerging performer) Kate McGarrigle, Wainwright sounds woefully adrift, especially on the genre-clashing studio tracks. The solo live cuts are a bit better, but psychosexual fantasies such as \"The Untitled\" (about an incest-filled visit to the YMCA by the Hardy Boys) and \"Rufus Is a Tit Man\" (about he and his then infant son co-breastfeeding) are about as unpleasant to hear as they are to describe. --Billy Altman\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B00000ADKX\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B00000ADKX.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Loudon Wainwright, III\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio cd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
